Chapter 455
The mini had caused Trevor a terrible mood. If his TV series had aired as planned, there wouldn't be any
issues. The problem was that he suddenly switched to a live broadcast model, which inevitably made people
suspect he was trying to steal the spotlight from the trending mini s.
People, normally, wouldn't think much of it if it were in the past. But mini s were now at their peak in
popularity, and were tied to Aubree. Even those who weren't Trevor's fans knew that, regardless of what he said,
deep down, he was unhappy with Aubree.
Competing wasn’t an issue; what mattered was the embarrassment of losing. And with rushed post-production
due to tconstraints, Trevor ended up in embarrassment.
Many marketing accounts jumped on it for traffic, turning his new series into a meme. They joked that even a
master of the entertainment circle like him could have a disastrous flop.
If Trevor had just let it go, the fuss would have died down. However, he couldn't swallow his pride. Whether it
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas hiring trolls or rallying his fans, whenever a marketing account hyped this up, they would be attacked.
But people had a rebellious streak, so after a few rounds of this, Trevor becthe target of widespread
mockery.
Such an outcsurprised Aubree. ‘So, Trevor has been feeling pretty stifled lately?’ she thought. ‘It’s a good
thing!”
The situation with Sophia remained unresolved. Trevor, with his personality, could maintain control and avoid
mistakes when rational. However, with all his pent-up frustration, he now needed a way to vent.
Aubree grinned slyly. ‘As his dear younger sister, of course, | couldn't bear to see my good brother stewing in
anger, she thought.
There were people in Trevor's crew who were under her arrangement. So she had someone find a way to invite
Trevor out for a drink or a gathering.
After making arrangements about Trevor's situation, Aubree received a message from Birgitte.
According to her, GrabCheap in Sidlichen Strand had recently cunder malicious attack. Nothing serious had
happened thus far, but the attacks on GrabCheap'’s servers were clearly organized and planned, which was
probably just a test run. Aubree figured she had better head over there herself.
In the reception room of the Lawson Group, Bryan sat there, watching the steam swirling over his coffee, waiting
patiently for Elizabeth.
“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Elizabeth, dressed in a professional business suit, pushed open the door and said.
The crisp click of her heels on the floor echoed through the room just like her, decisive and energetic.
“Ms. Lawson, have you thought about what we talked about last time?” Bryan asked.
“The last tBryan cto me... Elizabeth thought for a moment and couldn’t help but chuckle. She was
surprised that Bryan would cto her with an alliance marriage proposal between the Wilson and Lawson
families, between Bryan and her.
Of course, this marriage was nothing but a facade. The only man she truly cared about was Bowen, and no one
else.
Bryan's reasoning was simple. He wanted to deal with Aubree, and she wanted to win over Bowen, which meant
she had to go against Aubree.
So why didn’t they join forces? Once Aubree was out of the picture, the Turner family would also be thrown into a
predicament. By then, Bowen would probably end up being tied down by her. It sounded like a pretty good plan.
“Mr. Wilson, don’t mindbeing straightforward. Our families have long been in a cooperative relationship. A
marriage alliance seems somewhat unnecessary, doesn’t it?” Elizabeth said.
“Business partnerships are inherently fragile. Only a community of shared interests bound together is the most
reliable relationship. Moreover, it’s my father who collaborates with you, not me,” Bryan replied.
Elizabeth had already made up her mind before she arrived. Saying this was merely to test Bryan's attitude
further.
She picked up her cup and clinked it against Bryan's with a crisp sound, a prelude to sealing the deal.
“I agree. Now that we are the closest allies, may | know your plans moving forward?” Elizabeth said, smiling.
